“Racism has no place in our game' - Arsenal hit out at 'unacceptable' Osei-Tutu abuse

The Gunners defender - on loan with VfL Bochum - was left in tears following an incident against St.Gallen on Tuesday night

Arsenal have hit out at the ‘unacceptable racial abuse’ that Jordi Osei-Tutu suffered during his debut for German side VfL Bochum on Tuesday night.

The Gunners right-back is on loan with Bochum and was making his first start for his new club during a pre-season friendly against Swiss side St. Gallen.

But he was left distraught following an incident with an opposing player just before half-time and left the pitch in tears, before eventually coming back out to continue the game.
